Yeah, I've been watching this thread with curiosity - can someone humour me too? ;-) The main issue being discussed seems to portability, no? You download the file, copy it around your network, wherever, and the machines that install it don't need to be connected to the net. Isn't this is the case with the CFMX updater? I downloaded over 14 MB. Don't tell me that was the 'installer' front for something that was downloading other stuff from the MM site when you ran it! :-o Appreciate there's more issues with regard to tracking changes, etc., but on this portability front - is there a strict, official difference between a service pack and an updater? in ignorance, - Gyrus ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - [EMAIL PROTECTED] work: http://www.tengai.co.uk play: http://www.norlonto.net - PGP key available ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ______________________________________________________________________ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
